Extractions: In October 1998, Congress passed the Identity Theft and Assumption Deterrence Act of 1998 (Identity Theft Act) to address the problem of identity theft. Specifically, the Act amended 18 U.S.C. § 1028 to make it a federal crime when anyone: knowingly transfers or uses, without lawful authority, a means of identification of another person with the intent to commit, or to aid or abet, any unlawful activity that constitutes a violation of Federal law, or that constitutes a felony under any applicable State or local law. Violations of the Act are investigated by federal investigative agencies such as the U.S. Secret Service, the FBI, and the U.S. Postal Inspection Service and prosecuted by the Department of Justice.

Extractions: WASHINGTON The veterans in the battle over tort reform are fighting on a new legal beachheadan unusual Seventh Amendment challenge in the U.S. Supreme Court with the potential to affect every civil suit in the federal system. The high court casewhich the justices will hear this monthstems from a jury award of $450,000 to a photographer for the loss of 300 slide transparencies by The Center for Humanities Inc., a Mount Kisco, N.Y.-based company that produces educational videos. The 2d U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals found the damages excessive and ordered the photo-journalist to accept $100,000 or face a new damages trial. The challenge to the 2d Circuit ruling Gasperini v. The Center for Humanities , 95-719has attracted a familiar lineup of adversaries who have fought in the high court over constitutional limits on punitive damages awards and in Congress over damage caps and other restrictions on personal injury and product liability litigation. But the Gasperini case, which some say could be the term's sleeper, offers a new twist on that familiar debate about runaway juries. It asks a fundamental and surprisingly still unsettled question of constitutional law: Does the Seventh Amendment's re-examination clause prohibit federal appellate courts from doing what most believe they have had the authority to do for at least 50 yearsreview jury verdicts for excessiveness?

Some are identical to marriage in nearly every respect except name; some have many but not all of the rights accorded to married couples; some are simple registries (also called domestic partnerships Some jurisdictions that have passed civil unions include Vermont in the United States Quebec and Nova Scotia in Canada ; and France Denmark Norway Sweden ...

Extractions: Encyclopedia worldwide Show index of all articles : united-states.asinah.net Main Page Edit this page The term civil law is used to refer to three different bodies of law a legal system derived from Roman law and commonly used in Europe ; here the contrast is common law the set of rules governing relations between persons (either humans or legal personalities such as corporations); here the contrast is public law , especially criminal law Secular law, as opposed to canon law (1) Civil law (as opposed to " common law ") is a legal tradition which is the basis of the law in many countries of the world, especially in continental Europe , but also Quebec Louisiana Japan Latin America , and elsewhere. (Some authors wrongly state that the Scottish legal system is also based on civil law, because of its origin in civil law. But it has been developing since 1707 into a mixed system combining elements of civil law and of common law as the House of Lords in England being the court of last resort for Scotland has interpreted Scots Law through the lens of English jurisprudence .) In the western and southwestern parts of the U.S., laws in such diverse areas as divorce and water rights show the influence of their Iberian civil-law heritage, being based on distinctly different principles from the laws of the northeastern states colonized by settlers with English common-law roots.

Extractions: HISTORY OF THE CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE By JUSTIN MILLER* Of the Los Angeles Bar [Produced with Permission (23 West's Annotated California Codes 1-44 (1955))] The Code of Civil Procedure of California as it appears in its present form is more law than constituted the entire library of many a California lawyer prior to the enactment of the Practice Act of 1851. That Act contained section numbers running from 1 to 642, and constituted a very small volume of approximately 100 pages. The Practice Act was amended frequently until in 1870 a complete revision was undertaken. In 1872 the Code of Civil Procedure, so named, came into existence. Dissatisfaction with its provisions was immediately revealed and the business of amendment started again. Each session of the Legislature added, subtracted, modified. Several revisions were undertaken; several commissions labored. Finally, it appeared in its present form. The history of this development is an interesting one, not only from the legal point of view, but because of the political, economic and social implications involved. Fortunately, there were strong men in those days, with the attributes of real citizenship. Before California became a State, it was under military government, but that government had little influence except along the seaboard. The mining camps in the Mother Lode of the Sierra Nevada mountains and in the far northern reaches of the Coast Range knew little and cared less about the proclamations of the military governors.

Extractions: On behalf of our long-time client Paralyzed Veterans of America (PVA), we filed an amicus curiae brief in this case in the Eleventh Circuit, addressing both the private right of action and remedies issues. We also assisted plaintiff's counsel in the preparation of her initial and reply briefs. Oral argument in the case is scheduled for September 2002 and we anticipate that plaintiff's counsel will yield some of her argument time to permit participation by IPR attorneys on behalf of amicus PVA. Access to Foreign Airlines While we believe litigation will continue to be an effective strategy, we will also continue to evaluate other options such as administrative or legislative advocacy and possible uses of a press strategy. We have contacted a number of European organizations of citizens with disabilities to determine whether there are EC laws that might affect the claims of airline passengers with disabilities and whether there are causes of action under European law.
